This study is an investigation of the validity of the Online Test Anxiety Inventory (O?-TAI) for adult students. The scale contained the 20 items of the Test Anxiety Inventory (Spielberger, 1980), together with five computer anxiety items, all rephrased so as to pertain to online test anxiety. The scale was administered to a large sample of Greek…

The growing ubiquity, rich functionality, and relative affordability of mobile devices have been seen as opportune factors for implementing mobile learning solutions that can be used in a variety of contexts and domains. Plenty of successful mobile educational applications have been built. This paper describes an attempt to build on this success.…

The student-generated question (SGQ) strategy is an effective instructional strategy for developing students' higher order cognitive and critical thinking. However, assessing the quality of SGQs is time consuming and domain experts intensive. Previous automatic evaluation work focused on surface-level features of questions. To overcome this…

This meta-analysis examines the influence of smart classrooms on students' learning outcome, synthesizing findings from 21 empirical studies. The results indicate a significant overall effect size (SMD = 1.10), suggesting that smart classrooms positively affect learning outcomes more than traditional settings. Cognitive development (SMD = 1.014)…

Assessment of attitudes towards statistics [ATS] is needed to support the success of statistics education in tertiary institutions, so measuring instruments with high accuracy is required. However, existing instruments to measure ATS have not considered the use of technology as an essential variable affecting success in statistics education. The…

There is growing literature on computerized dynamic assessment (C-DA) wherein individual items are accompanied by mediating prompts, but its effectiveness at fine-grained levels across time has not been explored sufficiently. This study constructed a computerized listening dynamic assessment (CLDA) system, where mediation was informed by an…

This research aimed to investigate and develop an online system for educational measurement and evaluation with a focus on authentic assessment. The research process consisted of four main stages: (1) analyzing the current state and carrying out qualitative interviews on authentic assessment, (2) developing an online measurement and evaluation…

Automated writing evaluation (AWE) software is an increasingly popular tool for English second language learners. However, research on the accuracy of such software has been both scarce and largely limited in its scope. As such, this article broadens the field of research on AWE accuracy by using a mixed design to holistically evaluate the…

As Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR) technologies revolutionize educational landscapes, European higher education institutions face the critical challenge of bridging the gap between institutional vision and practical implementation of these advanced technologies. This study examines VR/AR integration readiness through a comprehensive…

Digital transformations within educational systems are recurrently justified by their promise to enhance learning activities and outcomes. We examine this claim in a study of pupils' perception and experiences with computer-based adaptive tests in higher classes in Danish public primary schools. The study relies on survey and interview data and…

This paper compares the speaking scores generated by two online systems that are designed to automatically grade student speech and provide personalized speaking feedback in an EFL context. The first system, "Speech Assessment for Moodle" ("SAM"), is an open-source solution developed by the author that makes use of Google's…

The aim of this research is to reveal the opinions of teachers about the development of assessment activities in updated educational conditions. The study was conducted with the phenomenology pattern, one of the qualitative research designs. The study data were collected with semi-structured interview forms applied to primary, secondary and high…

Assessment is an important element of any effective teaching and learning strategy. Designing an appropriate assessment strategy is a continual challenge for instructors because the assessment structure must be well aligned with the intended learning outcomes. Technological advances have led to an expansion of online and distance modes of course…

Computer-based assessments have considerable potential in assessment. This study explores the perceptions of 500 post-graduate students, noting gender differences where appropriate, in relation to the role of computer applications in formative assessment. Using questionnaires and interviews, the data reveal that the student perceptions of the role…

This study describes the impact of embedding dynamic computer visualization (DCV) in an online instrument that was designed to assess students' understanding of osmosis. The randomized posttest-only control group research was designed to compare the effect and the perceived helpfulness of the integration of DCV before and after the administration…
